Twitter has long influenced the national conversation and media and entertainment types have embraced the social media platform as a way to keep a finger on the pulse of America, but OutKick founder and radio host Clay Travis claims that model failed ESPN and hit back at recent comments from former ESPN personality Jemele Hill.
Travis appeared on Fox News host Brian Kilmeade’s radio show Saturday to address comments made by Hill on the podcast Le Batard And Friends , for a segment called “An Honest Conversation About ESPN, Rachel Nichols & Maria Taylor.”
On the podcast, Hill called Clay Travis an “idiot” and appeared to blame him for her ousting and the ousting of other politically charged hosts like her at ESPN. “They let a false narrative persist about our show that people ran away with. They let the idiots in the room control the conversation, people like Clay Travis. They allowed those people to direct their course of action. They panicked, and suddenly, they were very intentional about the things that they were doing in our show. They wanted black faces. They didn’t necessarily want black voices.” Hill said.
Hill’s comments can be heard around the 12:50 mark: Travis joined Kilmeade to respond and talked about politics being injected into the entertainment and sports world.
“I sometimes feel that people become captured by social media…When you’re on your phone all day and you have your notifications turned on and people are constantly talking about you, it can make you feel like that is the real world,” he told Kilmeade.
“It sucks you into the idea that Twitter is the real world, and it matters… but what I always try to remind myself of is we’re talking about 10 percent of the population that’s really very active on Twitter,” Travis continued, pointing to this phenomenon giving media pundits, public relations professionals, executives, and companies a “distorted vision of the reality.”
“Twitter is like a carnival funhouse mirror… if you stand in front of the carnival fun house mirror and try to judge whether you’re in good shape based on the fun house mirror, you […]

Yes, We Need Your Help
I hate being “that guy” who asks people to donate because I think our conservative news network is so crucial, but here I am…
When I left my cushy corporate job in 2017, I did so knowing that my family would have to make sacrifices. But I couldn’t continue to watch the nation slip into oblivion and was inspired by President Trump’s willingness to fight the good fight even at his own personal expense. What I didn’t realize then is that conservative media would be so heavily attacked, canceled, and defunded that the sacrifices would be extreme.
Many in this nation are struggling right now even though we weren’t struggling just a few years ago. I’m not alone. But I wake up every morning and operate the sites we’ve been able to build because there’s really no other choice. I refuse to be beholden to Big Tech like so many other conservative news outlets, which is why you won’t see Google ads here. With that said, it’s often challenging to pay the bills and it’s even harder to expand so we can get the America First message out to a wider audience.
The economic downturn has forced me to make a plea for help. Between cancel culture, lockdowns, and diminishing ad revenue, we need financial assistance in order to continue to spread the truth. We ask all who have the means, please donate through our Giving Fuel. Your generosity is what keeps these sites running and allows us to expand our reach so the truth can get to the masses. We’ve had great success in growing but we know we can do more with your assistance.
We currently operate:
- NOQ Report
- Conservative Playlist
- Uncanceled News
- Based Underground
- Five other conservative news sites
I would even be willing to entertain investments and partnerships at this stage. I’ve turned them down in the past because editorial purity is extremely important. I’ll turn them down again if anyone wants us to start supporting RINOs or avoid “taboo” topics like voter fraud, vaccines, or transgender supremacy. But I’d talk to fellow America First patriots who want to help any (or all) of our 10 news sites. Hit me up at jdrucker (at) substack (dot) com if you’re interested.
For those who have the means and just want to help keep the mission of spreading a conservative, Christian message to the nation, please consider a generous donation.
